Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of event A happening, then event B, is the probability of event A happening times the probability of event B happening given that event A already happened.
In this case, event A is the Captain hitting the pirate ship and event B is the pirate hitting the Captain's ship.
The Captain fires first, so his ship can't be sunk before he fires his cannons.
So, the probability of the Captain hitting the pirate ship is 2/5
If the Captain hit the pirate ship, the pirate has no chance of firing back.
So, the probability of the pirate hitting the Captain's ship given the Captain hitting the pirate ship is 0.

The right hand side of Step 1: 
Rather, the correct sum is:

Answer:
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
The whole book can be represented as 12/12 because 12 divided by 12 equals one whole ( or one). 1/3 * 4/4(one rewritten) = 4/12 We then need to add this to 1/4 * 3/3 (one rewritten again) = 3/12
4/12 + 3/12 == 7/12
7/12 is the amount Julie did read so we subtract this from 12/12 to get the answer:
5/12
Answer: 21/5 or 4 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve 7/9 x 5 2/5
First Convert the improper fraction to proper fraction
5 2/5 = 27/5
= 7/9 × 27/5
Divide 27 by 9 = 3
= 7/1 x 3/5
Next, multiply the two numerators: 7 x 3 =21
And the two denominators: 1 x 5= 5
= 21/5
I hope this helps.
